I was driving around downtown one afternoon in the winter. I   1  a red light and stopped. As I was   2 , I saw a young guy standing on my left. He was   3  in the face and holding a cardboard sign with some   4  on it. When you’re in the heart of downtown, it’s pretty   5  to see homeless people asking for   6 . Generally, I would pass them, but this time when I glanced over the sign, I   7 
I can’t remember what the sign said exactly, but it was something like: “  8  money / food, have stomach cancer, homeless, anything helps.”
I didn’t know why, but for some   9  this particular sign struck me. The   10  had just turned green, and there was a line of lunch rush hour traffic behind me. I went back and forth in my    11  a hundred times in that next   12  about whether I should do something. “Should I help?  13  on? Should I do something?”
I didn’t. I did nothing.
The traffic moved  14 , and I went with it. About a block(街区)or two away, my heart had sunk simply for this guy. I felt so   15  for him. So, I decided to go back and ask him  16  I could buy him lunch and hear his story.
It took me about five minutes to   17  and back on to the same street where I had seen him. It was just five minutes — but he was   18 .
“Where did he go so fast?” I wondered. So, there was   19  left to do except drive on. 
If you get a special nudge(想做的事)from inside you,   20  consider acting on it. Don’t miss out — for yourself and for that other person.

               Motherhood is a career to respect

  A WOMAN renewing her driver’s license at the CountyClerk’s office was asked to state her occupation. She hesitated, uncertain how to classify herself.

  “What I mean is,” explained the recorder, “do you have a job, or are you just a...”

  “Of course I have a job,” said Emily. “I’m a mother.”

  “We don’t list ‘mother’ as an occupation... ‘housewife’ covers it,” said the recorder.

  One day I found myself in the same situation. The Clerk was obviously a career woman, confident and possessed of a high sounding title. “What is your occupation?” she asked.

  The words simply popped out. “I’m a Research Associate (研究员) in the field of Child Development and Human Relations.”

  The clerk paused, ballpoint pen frozen in midair.

  I repeated the title slowly, then I stared with wonder as my pronouncement (声明) was written in bold, black ink on the official questionnaire.

  “Might I ask,” said the clerk with interest, “just what you do in your field?”

  Coolly, without any trace of panic in my voice, I heard myself reply, “I have a continuing program of research (what mother doesn’t), in the laboratory and in the field (normally I would have said indoors and out). Of course, the job is one of the most demanding in the humanities (any mother care to disagree?), and I often work 14 hours a day (24 is more like it). But the job is more challenging than most careers and the rewards are more of a satisfaction rather than just money.”

  There was an increasing note of respect in the clerk’s voice as she completed the form, stood up, and showed me out.

  As I drove into our driveway, buoyed up (激励) by my glamorous new career, I was greeted by my lab assistants – ages 13, 7, and 3.

  Upstairs I could hear our new experimental model (a 6-month-old baby), in the child-development program, testing out a new vocal pattern.

  I felt proud! I had gone on the official records as someone more distinguished and indispensable (不可缺少的) to mankind than “just another mother.”

  Motherhood... What a glorious career! Especially when there’s a title on the door.

How did the female clerk feel at first when the writer told her occupation?

  A. Cold-hearted.    B. Open-minded.

  C. Puzzled.       D. Interested.

How many children does the writer have?

  A. 3    B. 4    C. 7    D. 13

Why did the woman clerk show more respect to the writer?

  A. Because she thought the writer did admirable work.

  B. Because the writer cared little about rewards.

  C. Because the writer did something that she had little knowledge of.

  D. Because she admired the writer's research work.

What is the point of the article?

  A. To show that how you describe your job affects your feelings toward it.

  B. To show that the writer had a grander job than Emily.

  C. To argue that motherhood is a worthy career.

  D. To show that being a mother is hard and boring work.
